iPhoto - Is there a way of locking photos?

I'm kind of alarmed by how easy it is to delete photos from iPhoto, eg accidentally rub against the delete button and the photo disappears from the Event - without any request for confirmation that you want to delete! I know you can password protect the photos for other users, but is there any way of 'locking' photos so that you can't accidentally delete them yourself?

I'm not 100% sure, but in iPhoto, deleting a photo only relegates that photo to the Trashcan. It won't actually be deleted until you empty the trashcan.
